Hello. 

I was told last week the pathology from my partial thyroidectomy has come back as tall cell varient and they want to remove the other side of my thyroid next month with my lymph nodes. 

I have researched and know it can be more aggressive and a poorer prognosis but I really would rather avoid surgery again as it was horrible a couple of months ago. 

Has anyone any experience of this type of cancer? Could I take a monitoring approach?
